Chapter 128: Waves_4

Therefore, the observer simply abandoned the notion of clamping down on dissent and, in the official capacity of National Preceptor and the Governor of Li Province, ordered the Grand Marshal of Li Country, Wang Er, to lead the capital's garrison forces northward. In addition, Wang Er was appointed as the military governor, managing the military affairs of the five border provinces and guarding against the incursions of Divine Teachings.

This move pulled away eighty thousand left and right imperial guards from Jingji and, including the border army from the five towns totaling one hundred and twenty thousand, Li Country mobilized an army of two hundred thousand troops. They pressed against the border of Kun Nation, confronting Divine Teachings directly and also promptly responded to the demands of Immortal Palace and Xuanmen, fully demonstrating the sincerity of Mo Zhu Mountain.
